Lots of boxing this week, lots of potential classes - can anyone who understands the TV guide give a FULL rundown of the Pro and amateur stuff - and also (crucially) its repeat times. Trying to work out the Amateur stuff on Sky is quite difficult using the Sky guide - I keep wondering (is this a repeat, or is this a new session).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Setanta have a Live "build up" to the Joe Calzaghe bill starting at 8:15 - does say if this means undercard. The Live fight begins I think at 12:45 - schedulued to finish at 3 am.

What happens if the programme doesn't finish at 3AM & continues over the schedule? I hope Setanta don't just cut off, thus we're unable to view any more live coverage.
That happened to me last time out with Pacquaio-Barrera. I was well pissed to say the least!

Setanta might show the undercard action, as should be under way by 8 or 9 I'm guessing...though I might go out, then come back and tune in for the Macca blowout. Live on HBO as well, so maybe a 1am start for Enzo??
I reckon the PacMan cut off, last time out, was due to the fact they pre-paid for a certain amount of satellite air time, which is very expensive, then it overran and they were taken by surprise & without a plan B.
New to the game I suppose, and hopefully Setanta have learned the drill in time for the next overseas live one.
They will likely have their own cameras there for Cardiff....mad if they don't.

So Anyone know the times for the Amateur stuff and when its repeated.
Would like to definately view the Gomez vs Tackie fight that ITV 4 showed as part of the Contender stuff as I was at work. So thats 9 on Friday - clashing with an Amateur show.
Also there is the Saturday Amateur stuff clashing with Joe's build up.
Some surely knows?

I can't stay up for the Vegas 5am shows these days - screws me up for the week.
But a 2am kick-off I should just about be able to do - using the tried and tested method of watching the big one with a hand over one eye etc trying to foucs on the screen.
